Why do Atheists exist?

No, an intellectually honest atheist will admit that some nebulous vague god-concept could possibly exist maybe. Then they'll admit that there is no reason to believe that such a thing exists, just like there is no reason to believe that leprechauns exist, and so consider him/herself an atheist since he/she lacks the belief that a god exists. Then admitting that it's impossible to know with certainty whether or not a god exists, he/she will also consider him/herself an agnostic as well as an atheist.

That depends on whether they fall in line with your definitions, not whether they are intellectually honest.

Yeah! Why DO atheists exist? It's almost as if they looked around for proof of god's existence and found none and decided to be intellectually honest and not ascribe anything to god unless it is proven!

If your signature is true, that you think God is just an imaginary friend that caught on, how did we came to be?

It's pretty obvious if you take a look of the world and look at the basics of life.

Ancient people thought it was pretty obvious that Zeus made lightning, because otherwise, why did lightning appears sometimes?

Wait... wasn´t it Zeus? Thor maybe?

I can understand you believing in God cause of life experiences, that´s why I have faith, but to believe it´s the only logical affirmation is being as eager to say "Godidit!" as a lot of people who have been wrong in human history is to want to join them in their wrong camp to what logic is all about.

Hm, atheists don't believe in God, but they cant disproof him (and never will derp) and since they cant, they have to believe in the possiblity...wouldunt that make them...agnostic? lol

It's both, experience and logic, and they were both zeus and thor, just different places.

And they named gods because of something they saw but didnt understand, like the sun, yet we are talking about creation itself here, there had to be something to get the ball rolling, its so simple and obvious.

Actually, that can be called weak atheism. When they don´t beleive God exist because no evidence has been provided to them but may change believe if they feel strong and irrefutable evidence is provided that is weeak atheism.

you cant attribute creation of everything with reason and logic. Only faith and fantasy.:facepalm:

Of course I can't 100% prove he exists, that's why there is faith. DERP! :facepalm:

There's SUFFICIENT proof, just think about the beginning, there was nothing right? we are supposedly 16 billion years old, so what got the ball to roll?

So simple and obvious.

“I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.”

So do you believe in just "one designer" or all of them?
